REČ UREDNIKA

Pred čitaocima se nalazi elektronski zbornik priča od šest reči pod naslovom „I bi priča”. Zbornik se objavljuje povodom obeležavanja jubileja – 60 godina od smrti američkog pisca Ernesta Hemingveja. Poznato je da je ovaj nobelovac začetnik najkraće prozne forme na svetu. Jednom prilikom, Hemingvej je prihvatio izazov da napiše najtužniju priču u samo šest reči i ta priča je glasila: „Na prodaju: bebine cipelice, nikada nošene.”

U zborniku je zastupljeno 119 autora iz: Srbije, Hrvatske, BiH (Republike Srpske), Crne Gore, Slovenije, Grčke, Engleske, Irske, Švedske, Izraela, Amerike, Egipta, Saudijske Arabije, Bahreina, Mjanmara, Indonezije, Filipina, Indije, Nepala, Tadžikistana, Bangladeša, Kine, Azerbejdžana, Meksika, Albanije, Italije, Portugala, Francuske, Nigerije, SAD, Kanade i Australije.

Uredništvo u sastavu: Ana Stjelja, predsednica Udruženja „Alia Mundi” i glavna urednica elektronskog književnog časopisa „Enheduana”, Marija Juračić, urednica portala „Očaravanje” i kourednica elektronskog časopisa „Diskurs” i Jasmina Hanjalić, urednica književnog bloga „Jasminin književni kutak” zahvaljuje se svim autorima na učešću u konkursu i doprinosu zborniku koji, osim obeležavanja jubileja – 60 godina od smrti Ernesta Hemingveja ima za cilj da prikaže književnu umešnost autora u veoma kratkoj proznoj književnoj formi, ali i da poveže autore iz različitih zemalja i iz raznolikih kultura, što je ujedno i jedna od ideja vodilja izdavača ovog elektronskog zbornika, Udruženja „Alia Mundi” za promociju kulturne raznolikosti.

POGOVOR

K

ada je Hemingway za okladu napisao priču od šest riječi, on je napisao priču. Nije ta priča bila impresija, poetska minijatura, dosjetka. Nije bila ni aforizam, ni filozofska misao, ni gola emocija. Bila je to priča sa svim elementima priče. A priča ima fabulu, likove, zbivanja… Njezina je struktura složena, njezina je književna tehnika naracija. I upravo su ti elementi priče bili izazov natječaja kojeg je raspisao časopis za umjetnost pisanja i knjigoljubljenja „Enheduana“.

Ako u šest riječi ne stanu svi zapleti i rješenja, ako je naracija svedena na najmanju mjeru, ako autor ne može razgranati priču, on ipak može potaknuti maštu i misao čitatelja, koji onda iz svog životnog iskustva i iz konteksta priče širi i shvaća fabulu. Koliko su autori ovih priča uspjeli doprijeti do čitatelja i pokrenuti proces prešutnog nastavka priče, reći će čitatelji. Izostavivši priče mojih bliskih suradnika, odabrala sam nekoliko priča koje su u najvećoj mjeri, tehnikom svog izraza, dale cjelovitu priču pa su zaslužile pohvalu.

Ovi su autori mjesto i vrijeme zbivanja svojih priča vješto postavili u kontekst kolektivnog pamćenja mnogih generacija, u općepoznate sudbine naroda u koje se uklapa sudbina mnogih pojedinaca. Zato njihove priče ne djeluju fragmentarno pa ih doživljavamo dovršenima.

Priče su to o sudbini čovjeka koje se ponavljaju u svim vremenima, priče koje će se ponavljati i dalje. Takve priče ispričali su Elena Aničić, Nikola Šimić Tonin i Isaac Cohen. Elena Aničić (Knjiga rođenih, knjiga umrlih. Jedan datum) je temu smrti filozofski postavila kao sveopću, masovnu pojavu, kada se u jednoj točki završenog života nalaze ljudi koji do tog trenutka nisu imali ništa zajednič-

Zbornik priča od šest reči /Six-word stories collection

I BI PRIČA ◌ AND THERE WAS STORY ko. Nikola Šimić Tonin ( Na bojišnici. Prva crta smrt crta) je iskoristio općepoznate činjenice koje su se u povijesti civilizacije mnogostruko ponavljale. Koristeći prezent, ostvario je dojam nastavljanja, nezavršavanja priče. Isaac Cohen (Bosonogi čovek prekrio je ceo svet) također je u svojoj priči iskoristio čitateljevu spoznaju o suvremenim zbivanjima, migracijama, izbjeglištvu, kada čovjek gubi svoj dom i biva izbačen iz života u tuđe, u nepoznato.

Neke priče tematiziraju sumrak civilizacije, izumiranje cijelih bioloških vrsta zbog čega su ljudi sve više zabrinuti pa će dobro razumjeti tragičnu priču Tanje Ajtić (Poslednja bela medvedica sahranjuje svoje mladunče). Anđelko Zablaćanski (Na neuzoranim njivama sahranjujemo svoje potomke), Stefan Elezovć (Mi smo budućnost koje se plašimo) te Zorica Baburrski (Rođenjem sam udahnuo zadah smrti civilizacije) dijele zabrinutost svijeta zbog sve slabijeg stanja Zemlje, naše zajedničke majke koju sve manje poštujemo. Autori koji se nisu oslanjali na zajedničku memoriju čovječanstva, a ipak su uspjeli ispričati potpunu, zaokruženu priču su: Boris Nazansky ( - Sine - zagrli muža žena u sanatoriju.)Branko Ječmenica (Bacio je nož. Neko vrisnu. Aplauz.) Sonja Kokotović (Telefonski poziv. Vijest progovorila vriskom. Odijeljeni.) Žana Koven (Razvod, sestra i brat dijele fotografije.) Ovi autori ispričali su cjelovitu priču, onu koja ne može biti pjesma, esej ili drama. Branko Ječmenica uspio je čak na kraju priče primijeniti narativni obrat koji mijenja smisao radnje i daje priči nenadani završetak. A Ashraf Aboul – Yazid (Popeh se brzo žaleći izgubljene puteve) napisao je Ich Form priču filozofskog sadržaja s kojim se svaki čovjek može identificirati i zapitati se: „Što je moje stope usmjerilo baš u tom životnom pravcu? Kakav bi bio moj život da sam krenuo drugim putom? Nalazi se u ovoj knjizi još mnogo dobrih priča u čast omiljenog pisca Ernesta Hemingveja.

AFTERWORD

W

hen Hemingway wrote a six-word story for the bet, he wrote the story. That story was not an impression, a poetic miniature, a joke. There was no aphorism, no philosophical thought, no naked emotion. It was a story with all the elements of a story. The story has a plot, characters, events ... Its structure is complex, its literary technique is narrative. And it was precisely these elements of the story that were the challenge in the competition announced by the magazine for the art of writing and book-loving Enheduana and the Asssociation “Alia Mundi” for cultural diversity.

If all the plots and solutions do not fit in six words, if the narration is reduced to a minimum, if the author cannot branch out the story, he can still stimulate the imagination and thought of the reader, who then expands and understands the plot from his life experience and context. How much the authors of these stories have managed to reach the readers and initiate the process of tacit continuation of the story, they will tell the readers. Omitting the stories of my close associates, I chose a few stories that, for the most part, by the technique of their expression, gave a complete story and deserved praise.

These authors have faithfully placed the place and time of their stories in the context of the collective memory of many generations, in the well-known destinies of peoples into which the destiny of many individuals fits. That is why their stories do not seem fragmentary, so we experience them as complete.

These are stories about the destiny of man that are repeated at all times, stories that will be repeated even further. Such stories

I BI PRIČA ◌ AND THERE WAS STORY were told by Elena Aničić, Nikola Šimić Tonin and Isaac Cohen. Elena Aničić (Birth certificate, death certificate. One date) philosophically set the topic of death as a universal, mass phenomenon, when at one point in the end of life there are people who had nothing in common until that moment. Nikola Šimić Tonin (Battlefield. First line draws the death.) used well-known facts that have been repeated many times in the history of civilization repeated many times. Using the present, he gave the impression of continuing, not finishing the story. Isaac Cohen (Barefoot man covered the whole world.) also used in his story the reader’s knowledge of contemporary events, migrations, exile, when a man loses his home and is thrown out of life into someone else’s, into the unknown.

Some stories thematize the twilight of civilization, the extinction of entire biological species, which is why people are increasingly worried, so they will understand the tragic story of Tanja Ajtić (The last polar bear burying her cub). Anđelko Zablaćanski (Inploughed fields. We bury our descendants.), Stefan Elezovć (We are the future we fear) and Zorica Baburrski (Born – inhaled deadly breath of civilization.) share the world's concern over the deteriorating state of the Earth, our common mother. Authors who did not rely on the common memory of humanity, and yet managed to tell a complete story are: Boris Nazansky (“Son!” Wife hugged husband in sanatorium). Branko Ječmenica (He threw the knife. Scream!

Aplause!) Sonja Kokotović (Phone call. She screamed news. Separated.) Zana Coven (Divorce, sister and brother share photos.)

These authors told the whole story, one that cannot be a poem, an essay, or a drama. Branko Ječmenica even managed to apply a narrative twist at the end of the story, which changes the meaning of the action and gives the story a sudden end. And Ashraf Aboul - Yazid (I climbed fast, mourning missing roads.) wrote a “Ich Form” story of philosophical content with which every man can identify and ask himself: “What directed my footsteps in this very direction of life?
